Description
A powerful portrait of rage and resilience, Memento Mori weaves together Greek mythology, neuroscience, and family tragedy through bedtime stories that explore grief, love, and death. A Korean woman tries to connect with her younger brother and grapple with family history, recasting the myths of Eurydice, Orpheus, Persephone, and Hades through a unique lens. Through a blend of dark humor and moving storytelling, this debut novel offers a thought-provoking exploration of the inescapability of death. A deeply personal and affecting work, Memento Mori is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in family drama, feminist literature, or Asian American experiences.
